I don't understand this one at all. What is an "abandoned mutex"? For
that matter why does the code wait on a mutex and an event? Do we
already own the mutex? If so what does it mean to wait on it? If not
then how can we release it?
???
Thanks,
David

Is there a test case or any outline of the conditions that cause this? I
think that would be useful to understand the issue further.

Hi,
Can I have a review for 8032901 bug [1] fix [2]. There is a possible
case when 'WaitForMultipleObjects' function can return the
WAIT_ABANDONED_0 [3] error value.
In such case it's better to release the mutex and return error value.
This will prevent other threads to be blocked on abandoned mutex.
Thank you,
Aleksej
